# Accessibility Statement

Last updated July 13, 2026

## Our commitment

Vivian exists to make documents accessible, so the bar for our own interface is not negotiable. We target WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance for the Vivian web application and for every artifact it produces, including audit reports.

## What we build for

Full keyboard operability (the review queue is keyboard-first by design), visible focus indicators, honest color contrast on a dark interface, semantic HTML with correct roles and labels, reduced-motion alternatives for every animation, and screen reader support across the dashboard.

## Known limitations

The product is young. Where we find gaps, they go to the top of the queue, and we would rather hear about them than not. If you hit a barrier using Vivian with assistive technology, tell us and we will fix it or provide the information another way.
